The Home Styles Savannah Kitchen Cart
The last time I wrote about the kitchen remodel, I included photos of four kitchen carts we were thinking about buying. I also included a poll, and asked y’all what you thought of them. The overwhelming response to the poll was for this one, the Oak cabinet with wood top and wine rack
I liked that kitchen cart at first, too, and would have had a place to put wine for sure, but…It has a wood top. And I was looking for something to put next to the stove so that I could put hot pans on it when they needed to come off the stove. So, the kitchen cart we we wound up buying is the white one shown above. It has a stainless steel top, which can take the wear of putting hot pots and pans on it. The white one also matches the stove and refrigerator that are both on that side of the room. I felt that if we tried to get a wood, it would never match the existing cabinets, and would make the room too dark.
About The Home Styles Kitchen Cart and Assembly
The Home Styles Savanna Kitchen Cart
The description of the kitchen cart on Amazon did not say that it had to be assembled. It was delivered in a HUGE box, that sat in our living room for over a week until we felt like putting it together. I wasn’t at home when Fabgrandpa took it out of the box. He said it was packed better than any other thing we have ever bought, with styrofoam sheets between pieces, and some pieces wrapped in bubble wrap. They also sent more screws than we needed. It did take several hours to put together, but we only needed a Phillips head screwdriver, a hammer, and the hex key that came with the kit. It weighs in at 125 pounds, but it can be easily moved on the casters. And, it has a brake on the casters so if you move it around or to another location for a party, it can’t be moved until you take the brake off.
I am already loving the piece, and I think it will last years. Next, I have to put up a new spice rack and a pot rack. It is slowly coming together.

It’s nice that it can be moved around! Love the white look and the open shelves. It would be nice to be able to see pots and pans on shelves like that.

December 12, 2014 at 12:08 pmIt looks good! I love putting together a kitchen the way you want it but the decisions are so much harder than you initially think! You chose well, and I think you’ll really like the fact its on wheels. We have a rolling one we use for holiday beverage service or whateve — so nice!

December 12, 2014 at 2:18 pmOhhh!! I love that one! And yes, would definitely need a place to put those hot pots and pans off the stove. Great choice!

December 12, 2014 at 3:37 pmLooks like you made a great choice! I think I voted for the wooden cabinet, but I see your reasons for needing something with a different top.

December 12, 2014 at 4:05 pmI love the open feel to it. I have my pots, pans, and trays below my stovetop but would love to be able to find the right one with ease!

December 12, 2014 at 10:42 pmIt looks great! It’s an odd corner but I think that helps make it usable. Having the wheels is convenient too.

December 12, 2014 at 11:41 pmI would LOVE a kitchen cart! I have very little counter space, and need a place to put hot pans as well!

December 13, 2014 at 8:17 pmYou made a great choice. I like the top of the one you selected. It’s easier to clean, too!

December 13, 2014 at 9:30 pmThat looks fantastic and you did a fabulous job of putting it together. I love that it has wheels. I think just about every piece of furniture should have wheels if for not other reason than to make cleaning around it much simpler… I love you wall color by the way, gorgeous!

December 14, 2014 at 10:34 amThe cart looks great! It should add a really nice bit of needed storage in that area, too.

December 14, 2014 at 11:43 pmWe’ve been looking for a rolling kitchen island type of thing for a while, but they all seem so huge! Our kitchen is the size of a postage stamp so this would be IDEAL for our place.
